Background
On April 13, 2012, Johnny & Associates added a timer to their official website, which counted down to the date April 15. When the timer reached the number four on the minute and second dials, the color of the number would alternate, in order, from purple, green, yellow, and pink.[1] When the timer reached zero, a silhouette of four individuals appeared on the website. This led to speculation regarding the return of NEWS.[2]
On June 8, 2012, it was announced that NEWS would be releasing "Chankapāna" on July 18. The title of the song, which describes the love between a man and a woman, was compared to an exotic name of a woman. "Chankapāna" was labeled as a dance-pop song, which was accompanied with a catchy hook.[3] "Chankapāna" is the first single released since the departure of Tomohisa Yamashita and Ryo Nishikido from the group.[4]
